Export plot result as pdf with "readable" text?

I'm using wxMaxima 0.8.5 on MacOS X 10.6.5

I want to create pdf files from plots made with wxMaxima.
It was possible when using Aquaterm as the output, which lets me save the
ploted graph as EPS or PDF.

However, in the PDF all the text (axes labels and numbers) is rendered as a
vector graphic, so it is not searchable and "readable" text any more.

I've seen PDF graphics created with gnuplot which contain "real searchable"
text, so I assume that can also be done with wxMaxima.

Is there a tutorial how to achieve that or can anyone help?

Kind regards

Hi Martin,

Are you looking for an export tab/button
which will automatically create pdf from your
figure created inside Maxima?

Although I am not very familiar with wxmaxima,
(I use xmaxima) I don't think that feature exists yet.

So just use, say, the normal latex to dvi to pdf route,
using an eps file save.

The following tex file has suitable plot2d code
(as a comment) to test your system:

----------------------
% file wxplot2d.tex
\documentclass[11pt]{article}
%\usepackage{fullpage}
\usepackage[dvips,top=1.5cm,left=1.5cm,right=1.5cm,foot=1cm,bottom=1.5cm]{geometry}
\usepackage{times,amsmath,amsbsy,graphicx,fancyvrb,url}
\usepackage[usenames]{color}
\title{wxplot2d test }

Test wxmaxima, ver. 5.23.2 with plot2d creating an eps file.

\begin{figure}[h]
 \centerline{\includegraphics[scale=1]{wx-black-red.eps} }
 \caption{ wxmaxima plot2d test with eps file }
\end{figure}

% plot2d code
% plot2d( [u^2, u^3],[u,0,2], [x, -.2, 2.5],
%          [style, [lines,8,5],[lines,8,2]],
%           [y,-1,4] , [psfile, "c:/work5/wx-black-red.eps"] )$
%

Does this look ok??
\end{document}
-----------------------------
The output dvi and pdf produced look ok using
wxmaxima 5.23.2 (with windows xp).
